If you search for "James George Weir" +aviation, using the Google search engine, (9-11-08), you
will find just three links. The first one is very informative, but the other two are a bit confusing for me.

You may want to use the "FIND" function on "Weir" to follow this series of very helpful articles on him on The
Aerodrome Forum website. Be careful to read all of the entries in order not to confuse the story of William Weir with that of his
brother, James.

DEATH

MR. JAMES WEIR, who, with his brother, Mr. George Weir,
founded the firm of Messrs. G. and J. Weir, died on July 10
at Over Courance, Dumfriesshire. Mr. George Weir retired
from the business many years ago, but Mr. James continued
to take an active part until about 10 years ago, when he
purchased the estate of Over Courance, which he farmed with
success. Since his retirement, the business has been
managed by the directors, including his eldest son, Lord
Weir, the late Air Minister, his second son, Brig.-Gnl. J. S.
Weir, C.M.G., who did valuable service in the Air Force
during the war, and his son-in-law, Mr. J. R. Richmond,
C.B.E.
